• Seem's a bit silly/vain to be posting pictures of the wheels before the frame they're going on has been built, but they're more than a little over the top and thought it might amuse some-one. They're the Level hubs I got of fixedgearlondon built up with H Plus Son rims. The plan is to match the colour of the frame (once it's built) to the red of the wheels and make everything else silver or gold, a sort of low-profile understated look :?

    The fork I got made to fit to my Soma Rush, but then rushed to fit it when I got home tired after a funeral (bloody stupid of me) and (despite measuring it 3 times) managed to cut it way to short. Threaded and fitted with a Chris King gripnut it'll fit a 8cm headtube, so I'm taking this as devine intervention telling me I need to build a low-pro, but I'm not in denial about the general stupidity of building a bike up around a pair of wheels and a fork :)

  • you might be able to pull it off. I dont like the red/gold combo though.

  • put a bit of green on it and it'll be like a Christmas decoration

    Nice wheels

  • very regal!

  • Hmmm... Red, gold and British racing green, now there's an interesting thought? Not quite sure I could pull that off though :)

  • Red + Gold = Iron Man

    And he pulled it off beautifully.

  • I am iiiiooorrrrnnnn man

  • Has he lost his mind?

  • needs black spokes for iron man . . .

  • ahem gabes ...

  • So hold on, are you building a lo-pro or a low profile looking machine with more than 2 colour combinations? I sure am confused and so are those wheels.

  • No thats a broken link I hear:D

  • nice ! Like 'em.

    ha! :-d
